Key Concepts:

1. Good Conflict: Learn how to navigate conflict constructively, preserving your sense of self and identity while understanding and respecting differing perspectives.
2. Active Listening: Develop the ability to listen actively, not just listening to respond, but to truly understand and engage with others’ viewpoints.
3. Storytelling Skills: Acquire basic storytelling skills that focus on the human experience, enabling you to create narratives that resonate with audiences on a deeper level.
